DUNE at LBNF

Doing business with us

Thank you for your interest in doing business with us. LBNF is a decade-long effort to create the facilities at both Fermilab and Sanford Lab necessary to support the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment. LBNF is an international project and the LBNF team works with U.S. and international vendors and contractors.

Our staff works to procure quality and cost-effective services, equipment and materials that support the project’s science and technology missions in accordance with Fermilab standards. Our procurement contacts are listed below.

The Fermilab procurement webpages provide terms and conditions for subcontractors and offerors, procurement, intellectual property, proprietary data, and information on accounting and finance.

A commitment to environment, safety, health and quality

At Fermilab, the health and safety of all who work here and our stewardship of the environment is paramount. We think that the best, most effective and least costly way to accomplish our goals is to do so with an established integrated quality assurance program and an integrated safety management program. We think that the most effective, well-managed businesses are those that share our view of the importance of quality, working safely – without injury to workers or to the public – and with respect for the environment.
